Description

IMDEA Materials has an immediate opening for a postdoctoral research position on scattering methods (WAXS/SAXS, SLS) applied to networks of nanowires.

The Multifunctional Nanocomposite Group has developed a method to produce macroscopic networks made of inorganic nanowires assembled from the gas phase.

They are freestanding flexible sheets, similar to nanotêxtiles, with an irregular mesoscopic structure.

Requirements:

Demonstrated experience as advanced user of Xray and/or light scattering methods applied to materials characterisation, preferably of inorganic solid materials.
PhD in materials science, physics, inorganic chemistry or a related discipline
Strong interest in experimental work is essential.
Command of written and spoken English is a prerequisite.

Conditions
The position includes a full-time, two-year contract with Social Security coverage.

The expected start date is July 2023.

Besides on-the-job technical training, IMDEA Materials Institute is committed to training the Institute's scientists and staff in "soft" or transversal skills

The working language of the Institute is English. Full command of the English language is required in all positions.
